I recently came under the possession of a clean yellow marker (level 20 common glove 7 slots +1 Hands). I was wondering if it would be better for me to try and scroll it and use it? or if i should sell it for 100m-ish and just buy 10 att wg.

Sorry wrong section. But I am a bowman though XD I guess I can ask too, is it worth scrolling bowman gloves?

No, simply because it has little resale value compared to a wg, or other common glove

It only adds a few extra dex which isn't that great of a benefit. Buying scrolled att gloves is always cheaper than scrolling unless you use a chaos scroll and get really lucky.

So why do people scroll att wg's so much if it's cheaper just to buy?

Because they're gamblers hoping to get lucky: if each 60% scroll costs say, five millions, then the price of the scrolls in total are twenty five millions. Let's say they land them all on a Work Glove, making it ten attack: that's a resell value of something like eighty millions depending on server. You would however need to land four or five to make it worth it...

Scrolling is a gamble. I hate gambling.

Both. I bought a 6 atk 1 slot yesterday for 15mil. I missed my 30% scroll, but it still ends as a 6 atk for 20 mil.

I had 600m when I started scrolling wgs. You have to expect to fail on a lot of them but if you scroll enough wgs than it'll pay off in the end. Right now I have 3bil worth in wgs.. So that's roughly 2.4bil in 4 months I have been doing this. Now I'm trying to wait until Dual Blades are announced before I start selling them.
